Our Culture
We’ve built our culture around a passion for delighting our customers, and created an environment that motivates and supports our employees in delivering exceptional customer experiences. We have high expectations of our employees, and provide competitive total rewards and a great work environment. Our culture recognizes and develops talent, rewards achievement, and encourages our employees to have balanced lives. Our recent recognition as one of the top best places to work in the country — gained in large part from the opinions of our employees — is an acknowledgment of the special work environment we foster here at Shutterfly.
To start off, we look for people who are intellectually curious, innovative, results oriented, and team oriented. We want people who are positive, collaborative, and willing to grow as Shutterfly continues to evolve. Most important, we seek those who can embody and demonstrate our core values:
- Passion
- - pursue excellence in everything we do
- Inspire
- - empower ourselves and each other to achieve more than we thought possible
- Act
- - think as owners and do what is right for the company, the customer and our team
- Commit
- - constructively challenge each other's ideas, commit as a team and then support one another
- Trust
- - treat others as we want to be treated
How we work together is also truly important. Good communication supports each of our five values. From our quarterly All Hands meetings to monthly Town Hall gatherings... to employee inter-department teams working with each other... and down to individual employees helping our customers, we consciously attempt to keep these communication cornerstones in place: Open. Honest. Frequent. Respectful.
Working here also means playing here — with a casual dress code, personalized workspaces, company events, social hours, lots of free lunches, a softball league, bowling teams, running clubs, community volunteering, and more.
